Our Impact
Arundel Castle Cricket Foundation has been supporting the education and development of children and young people since 1986. Last year our inclusive programmes supported the health, education and wellbeing of 1100 disadvantaged young people.
Our Impact in 2021
In 2021 we created magical experiences for 1134 young people, many of whom had been struggling as a result of the pandemic. We welcomed them to our home in Arundel and provided them with a space to reconnect and build up their confidence and resilience. Watch our short review video which tells the story of how our programmes have helped young people from across London and West Sussex.
Annual Report 2021
Despite the challenges of the pandemic we delivered a full and wide-ranging programme to help young people impacted by inequality, disadvantage or disability. Our annual report ‘New Experiences, New Horizons’ highlights the positive impact Arundel Castle Cricket Foundation has had on young people in 2021. Read our report and look back across the programmes we delivered, the partners we worked with and the young people we supported in what was our 35th year.

Young people are equipped to tackle the barriers in their lives
“The whole Arundel experience is a first for many of our students. These children come from areas where the pressure to join a gang is relentless, the opportunity to be a child again is a relief. I regularly see complete transformations in my students, they lose that defensive look, they relax, smile and laugh. For some it is just the sheer boost in their confidence that is a joy to behold, and this can be regularly referenced on our return. Many colleagues and parents have reported on seeing a change in many of the students who are lucky enough to visit Arundel”.

Young people have the skills and confidence to succeed
“There are also countless opportunities to teach life skills to our population of pupils who have language and communication difficulties, including autism. Our accommodation at Lodge Hill is the perfect setting to further develop life-long social and personal skills.”

Young people can improve and maintain their mental and physical health
“Our visit to Arundel embraced all aspects of our school curriculum providing children with endless opportunities of engagement both mentally and physically. They were avalanched by learning opportunities on every step they have made with bespoke and tailored cricket programme and the surrounding environment. Their independence and confidence have exploded on many levels of their school and personal life, which has been noticed by their parents and teachers.”
